HT5085 Do i need to purchase space in iCloud before I subscribe to iTunes match?

I subscribed to iTunes Match, and only 9 songs of my huge collection of songs were put in the cloud. Does that mean i need to buy more space? Currently i only have the free 5G.
thanks,

Hi DewDah,
As Steve indicated, the app cannot be purchased for Windows. If you have an iDevice, you can purchase the app for the device. And you can also share Microsoft Office documents (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) from you PC with iWork documents (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) on your iDevice and vice versa:
http://www.apple.com/iwork/compatibility/
Take a look at the video in this link. It will show you how you would be able to share the documents. Once they are in the iWork format, they would be saved to iCloud as long as you have the Documents & Data option turned on in Settings>iCloud on your device.
Cheers,
GB

HT4914 Do you need to purchase more than the basic 5 Gigs of free iCloud storage if you have more than 5 Gigs of all data that can be stored on iCloud if you subscribe to iTunes Match?

I purchased an additional 10 Gigs of iCloud storage in 2012 for my iPhone 4S and iPad (3rd Gen Wi-Fi) for $20 per year through my iPhone carrier AT&T using IOS 4.3 which has been kept updated to IOS 6.13. In 2012 I purchased an iPad 3rd Generation with Wi-Fi only and at the end of my one year 10 gig upgrade I noticed that I had not used any of the additional 10 gigs and was not going to renew the additional storage. However, I decided to move all of my MP3 music library and copy my remaining CD collection of music (a couple hundred CD's) to my Windows Computer Hard Drive so that I could keep them safe.
As I started purchasing new Albums from iTunes I decided to allow iTunes to store all my music in case my Hard Drive crashed. I did not purchase iTunes Match but all of my collections appear to be stored on iTunes as the storage cloud appears on my Apple devices which use the same Apple ID. A week ago I purchased another iPad (4th Generation Wi-Fi only) so my wife and I could use them at the same time. I kept everything under the same Apple ID because I use a lot of music creation apps like AmpliTube, Drum machines, Guitar Pro etc for creating music as well as Photo Apps for my Photography hobby and I wanted access to the apps regardless of which device was handy (including connecting the 2 iPads together for music looping and more).
I still don't see any of the additional Ten gigs used as less than 500 Meg's are backed up into memory from each of the three devices.
QUESTION: What is the advantage of an iTunes Match subscription if my library of some 10K songs are already stored on iTunes and I have not yet exceeded the initial 5 gigs of free iCloud storage? I keep my library in MP3 format for convenience and convert my music library to between 192 and 320 Kbps. Given the choice should I cancel the additional iCloud storage and subscribe to iTunes Match. Is iTunes Match a replacement for purchasing additional iCloud Storage?
Confused as to which service I need?

Only 5gb free iCloud storage is available for one apple ID.
As you said, 2 + 2.4 doesn't add up to 5gb
These are all the things that gets saved on iCloud
Photos and videos
iOS backup
Documents (from Pages, numbers, keynote, documents from other apps)
Also email from @iCloud.com account
if you go to [Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage], you can see this.
This should show you what is taking up your iCloud storage.

I want to upgrade to ilife iphoto but the default purchase is to osx lion. Do I need to purchase OS X lion before I can purchase ilife iphoto?

You need to be using Snow Leopard or Lion to run the current version of iPhoto.

Your purchased music is availble for download again at no cost. If you have iTunes match service, you can download your matched music.

Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...

Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
Next...
Upgrade to Mountain Lion

it already marked on my credit card. when i log in my itunes on pc, it is already subscribed but when i turn on the itunes match on my iphone 4s and 5, it says that i need to subscribe itunes match via itunes on my pc. which i already did

You need to be signed into the mobile iTunes Store with the same Apple ID used to purchase iTunes Match. On the iPad go to Settings > iTunes and App Stores and tap the Apple ID. Tap sign out. Then sign in with the correct Apple ID and you should be able to enable iTM on the iPad.

Both myself and my wife have 2 separate iTunes accounts, I subscribe to iTunes Match. Music purchased on my wife's account appear on our computers iTunes library but my iPad cannot access the music she has purchased. Is there any way to overcome this

The only way to do what you want is to log into your wife's iTunes Store account on your iPad. Doing this will lock you out of your account for 90 days.

HT201322 How do I delete previous music purchases from my account if I'm not subscribed to Itunes match?

On the support pages, there's only instructions to permanently remove songs from the ICloud or Itunes, and it says once you do it, they can't be recovered. I would like to so precisely that with some hideous purchases that keep showing up on my phone as downloadable from the Icloud even when I "hid" those purchases, and it annoyes me since I don't want to listen to those songs ever again in my life. Can somebody help me please? Let's remember the main issue here is that I'm not subscribed to Itunes match, and I don't want to subscribe to it. Is there any way to permanently delete those songs from my account without having to subscribe to Itunes match? Thank you.

HT5637 now that I have subscribed to iTunes match and synched with my phone, I assume that all the music stored on my phone is now stored in the cloud. Can I now delete the tunes on my phone so that I regain storage space?

Now that I have subscribed to iTunes Match and synched my phone, I'm assuming that my 6.9GB of music and 2.3 GB of videos are stored in the cloud and accessible to my phone for listening or watching. Can I now delete them from my phone so that I regain the 9.2GB of storage space?

Go to Settings > General > Usage, select Music, then Edit. There will be a delete option there. It may take a few minutes to delete if you have a large collection on your iPhone.

I recently subscribed to iTunes Match. iTunes is trying to match and upload songs not purchased from the iTunes store; however, it keeps shutting down before it finishes. Has this happened to anyone else?

Turn off iTunes Match while holding down the Option key (Shift for Windows) then quit iTunes. Open it after a few seconds, and turn iTM back on.

HT4914 1. My music takes up 3.5GB og space on my iOS devices. How much space will it take up after I subscribe to iTunes Match? 2. Will it include podcasts?

1. My music takes up 3.5GB og space on my iOS devices. How much space will it take up after I subscribe to iTunes Match? 2. Will it include podcasts?

The fix was to completely remove all Apple Software following guides in previous posts.
Then download and re-install latest iTunes 64-bit, making sure to Run As Administrator.
This fixed it. Now the next thing seems to be that as I move from one device to another to close and restart iTunes between each one. Treat it gently. It seems to break easily and a lot.

HT5085 I have nearly filled my iCloud storage with pictures. If I subscribe to iTunes match, will I still be able to access music via the cloud?

I have nearly filled my iCloud storage with pictures. If I subscribe to iTunes match, will I still be able to access music via the cloud, or will I have to buy more storage space? Cheers.

Yes, but... you'll have to first index her music through your iTM subscription. So... you'd have to add her music into your own library first. Which.... would defeat the point of iTM I suspect in your case.

HT4914 Create free space on the iPAD and iPhone with iTunes Match?

I'd like to subscribe to iTunes Match so that I can store songs there and in turn delete songs from my iPad, but not lose them. I want to free up space on my iPad and still have access to my music from the iPad. Will the program do this? I am uneasy about deleting songs from the iPad for fear that this space saving action will be repeated across all my devices, including my icloud account, permanently deleting the song from my library.

iTunes Match simply gets you no commercials and unlimited skipping of songs.
Not really a reason to subscribe to iTunes Match if that's all you want.

Ive just subscribed to itunes match. do i need internet access to play tunes when not using my home broadband?

On an iOS device yes unless you pre-download the music. On your computer no, unless you decide to delete the tracks from your iTunes library. The latter is not recommended without having a full backup of your muaic files.
